Kinematics of the dwarf irregular galaxy GR8 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2003
We present deep, high velocity resolution (~1.6 km/s) Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope HI 21cm synthesis images for the faint (M_B ~ -12.1) dwarf irregular galaxy GR8. We find that the velocity field of the galaxy shows a clear systematic large scale pattern, with a maximum amplitude ~10 km/s.

The Star Formation Across Cosmic Time (SFACT) Survey. III. Spectroscopy of the Initial Catalog of Emission-line Objects

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The Star Formation Across Cosmic Time (SFACT) survey is a new narrowband survey designed to detect emission-line galaxies (ELGs) and quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) over a wide range of redshifts in discrete redshift windows.

Delayed Massive-star Mechanical Feedback at Low Metallicity

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The classical model of massive-star mechanical feedback is based on effects at solar metallicity ( Z _⊙ ), yet feedback parameters are very different at low metallicity.

First Stellar Abundances in the Dwarf Irregular Galaxy Sextans A [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2004
We present the abundance analyses of three isolated A-type supergiant stars in the dwarf irregular galaxy Sextans A from high-resolution spectra the UVES spectrograph at the VLT. Detailed model atmosphere analyses have been used to determine the stellar atmospheric parameters and the elemental abundances of the stars.

Faint Dwarf galaxies in nearby WINGS clusters: photometric characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In the cores of galaxy clusters there is a population of lows-mass stellar systems such as dwarf Early-type galaxies, ultra-compact dwarf galaxies (UCDs) and ultra diffuse dwarf galaxies. We present here the photometric and morphological characterization

AT 2017fvz: a nova in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
ABSTRACT A transient in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 (Barnard’s Galaxy) was discovered on 2017 August 2 and is only the second classical nova discovered in that galaxy. We conducted optical, near-ultraviolet, and X-ray follow-up observations of the eruption, the results of which we present here.

The Relationship Between Recent and Old Star Formation in Dwarf Irregular Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics
In this paper, we investigate the structural properties of local dwarf irregular galaxies, including optical scale lengths, position angles, and star formation rates, using data from the LITTLE THINGS survey. Our analysis is based on a sample of 24 dwarf

Near IR imaging of Centaurus group dwarf elliptical galaxies

open access: yes, 2016
Detailed studies of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group have revealed an amazing diversity in their star formation histories. Young and intermediate-age stellar populations are observed in some gas-poor dwarf ellipticals, like Fornax and Carina, where ...
